« Video iPods Going From Hot to Steamy | Main | Latest iPods - 50 Percent Profit »Apple Faces Lawsuit over iPod nano ScratchesOctober 21, 2005iPod nano owners angry about what they say is the iPod nano screen’s tendency to scratch easily have filed a class-action lawsuit against Apple Computer, saying they want their money back plus a share of the company’s profits on the music player’s sales. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of nano owner Jason Tomczak and others who have purchased the device. The lawsuit alleges Mr. Tomczak rubbed a paper towel on his nano’s face and "that alone left significant scratches." The complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California in San Jose. The lawsuit charges that nano screens "scratch excessively during normal usage, rendering the screen on the Nanos' unreadable, and violating state consumer protection statutes… and causing Plaintiff class members to incur loss of use and monetary damages."

So I decided to just hold it in my hands (until my case finally comes in) and not let it touch anything inorganic - more hairline scratches. The bottom line - those little scratches build up more and more. So you go from nice and shiny to dull and faded in a matter of weeks. Apple should have at least included a decent case for the thing.
